visine Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 Both of these track are outstanding in the downtempo realm of Simon's work. I think I like And The Day...better. Quote

abasio Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 The Herb Garden by a mile! Trippier with a more enjoyable atmosphere Quote
rino Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 I voted for Shpongle's track, ...And The Day Turned To Night, as it's the number which got me into their music in the first place. Mystery Of The Yeti, I occasionally (READ: twice a year max) listen to, but it's just too meditative and sloooooooow to really grab hold of my attention. I can listen to M.O.T.Y. as some random background music, just for the hell of not enjoying pure silence, but it's not a project I can really get into. Shpongle, on the other hand, I am pretty much crazy about ever since first being introduced to them with the closing track of their debut album, "Are you shpongled?" Quote

I tend to agree, althou Herb Garden by Simon is far from being a boring piece of artsy gallery music. I find this piece to have very memorable, good melodies which can't be said for too many other psy-chill tracks I've had the... pleasure listening. Quote
seraph Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Tough choice... I have same history as rino, I've heard first Shpongle, and then M.O.T.Y. II and as much I find And The Day Turned Into Night more complex and dark, Herb Garden is pure delight, melodic crown, so it is rather tough decision between those two... Will post the vote later....

Goa Bill Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 The Posford himself admitted in an interview that And the Day Turned To Night is his best musical piece to date so I'll have to agree there. Probably the pinnacle of his music. Quote
